An old friend who recently moved back to Nashille explained to me that she used to try and compare Nashville to home (California) but after moving back home she realized Nashville is a cool city. She couldn’t see it before because I was trying to compare the two but later she saw the dopeness. This made me think, Nashille IS pretty dope.With the beautiful weather on the rise, the hotline has been blinging… you know friends wanting to hang out or long lost socialites who hide during the winter. This is the time of the year that sets the standard for the summer and here we are with long lines, no parking (day or night), packed malls, and no seats in bars and night clubs. Man, how I love this time of year!! Nashville has so much to offer, I mean, I know it’s not a LA, ATL, Miami or NYC…
After living in Nashville for almost 11 years, I have stumbled upon an underground or secret society of culture. For some of those 11 years, I was stuck in the same environments doing the same things and complaining about the lack of culture in the city. During that period culture might not have come close to what is happening in the city now. Others like me were seeking something different and relevant to their personalities and the desires of their soul. Because let’s face it, culture comes from a mix of hardships and soul. People develop creativity by expressing how they feel in many different fashions. Some people paint, sing, dance, graffiti, write or however they deem necessary. So, for someone like me, finding this secret society of culture in Nashville is great….. Except… gentrification could potentially kill what has become.Gentrification is very big and in your face in Nashville.…
